Taffel potato chips

Taffel is a renowned snack brand primarily associated with the Nordic and Baltic regions. Founded in 1969 on the Åland Islands, Finland, it was the first company to produce potato chips in Finland. The brand quickly became a household name, known for its high-quality ingredients and classic varieties like 'Original' and 'Grillsips'. Over the years, Taffel expanded its portfolio to include popcorn, nut mixes, and various shaped savory snacks.

Today, Taffel is owned by Orkla ASA, a major Norwegian conglomerate specializing in consumer goods. While the brand has deep Finnish roots, its manufacturing is distributed across the region to serve local markets efficiently. The primary production facilities are located in Haraldsby, Åland (Finland), and Ādaži, Latvia. These factories use locally sourced potatoes, maintaining the brand's commitment to regional agriculture and sustainability. As of 2026, Taffel remains a market leader under the Orkla Confectionery & Snacks division, maintaining its heritage while innovating with new flavors and eco-friendly production practices.
